| Screen Size and Viewing Distance | Confirm the display dimensions, aspect ratio, pixel pitch, and the audience's closest viewing position. | The selected pixel pitch should be suitable for the intended viewing distance; the image should remain clear without visible distracting pixel structure. | Scaled venue layout, screen specification sheet, and a viewing-distance calculation. | Before requesting a final quotation | To Verify |
| Brightness and Indoor/Outdoor Use | Determine whether the event is indoors, outdoors, or exposed to changing daylight conditions. | The rental specification should identify brightness control, outdoor suitability, weather protection, and glare considerations for the venue. | Technical data sheet, enclosure rating information, and an outdoor operating plan when applicable. | During site assessment | To Verify |
| Structural Installation | Review the installation method, support structure, ballast, anchoring, overhead rigging, and floor loading requirements. | The proposed setup must be compatible with venue rules and supported by documented load, anchoring, and rigging information where required. | Engineering or load documentation, rigging plan, venue approval, and installation method statement. | Before contract approval | To Verify |
| Power and Cable Management | Check available circuits, power distribution, cable paths, cable ramps, grounding, and separation from public walkways. | Power requirements should be confirmed in advance, with protected cable routes that do not create trip hazards or obstruct emergency access. | Power plan, circuit requirements, cable-routing diagram, and venue electrical confirmation. | At least 1–2 weeks before the event | To Verify |
| Content and Signal Testing | Verify supported input formats, playback resolution, aspect ratio, signal distribution, and content delivery deadlines. | Test content should display without stretching, cropping, flicker, signal loss, or visible color inconsistency across the full screen. | Approved media files, signal-flow diagram, playback test record, and backup content copy. | Before installation and during rehearsal | To Verify |
| Installation Schedule | Confirm delivery time, build duration, testing period, rehearsal window, strike time, and venue access restrictions. | The schedule should include sufficient time for assembly, safety inspection, content testing, operator briefing, and corrective work before guests arrive. | Detailed production schedule, venue access confirmation, and named installation contact. | When comparing rental proposals | To Verify |
| On-Site Operation | Ask whether a trained technician will operate the screen, monitor signal status, change content, and respond to faults. | The operating plan should identify the technician's coverage hours, control location, escalation process, and backup procedure. | Staffing plan, operator qualifications, show-call procedure, and emergency contact list. | Before signing the service agreement | To Verify |
| Event Support and Response | Clarify support availability during setup, rehearsal, live operation, weather changes, and equipment failure. | Support responsibilities, response times, replacement procedures, and communication channels should be written into the event plan. | Service-level terms, support schedule, escalation contacts, and contingency plan. | Before the event week | To Verify |
| Safety and Public Access | Review barriers, screen stability, sharp-edge protection, cable covers, emergency exits, and separation from attendees. | The installation should preserve clear emergency routes and comply with the venue's safety procedures and applicable local requirements. | Site safety plan, pre-opening inspection checklist, floor plan, and venue sign-off. | During the site walk-through | To Verify |
| Weather Contingency | For outdoor events, confirm wind, rain, heat, condensation, and shutdown procedures. | The plan should define weather monitoring, operating limits, protective measures, suspension criteria, and safe takedown procedures. | Weather-risk plan, equipment protection details, forecast monitoring responsibility, and contingency schedule. | Before delivery and on event day | To Verify |
| Insurance and Responsibility | Identify responsibility for equipment damage, attendee-related incidents, venue property, transportation, and installation work. | The rental agreement should clearly define liability, insurance documentation, damage terms, cancellation conditions, and change-order costs. | Certificate of insurance, rental contract, cancellation policy, and itemized quotation. | Before payment or contract signing | To Verify |
| Final Acceptance Test | Conduct a complete pre-show inspection covering image quality, brightness, audio-visual synchronization, physical stability, and operator communication. | All approved content should play correctly, the screen should be stable, cable routes should be protected, and unresolved defects should be documented before opening. | Signed acceptance checklist, photos of the completed installation, test log, and issue-resolution record. | Immediately before guest access | To Verify |
